- I am thankful for a lot less pain today than the last couple days. (I'm hopeful for a workout.)
- I am thankful for a little niece trying to walk even though she just started to crawl.
- I am thankful for a gorgeous first day of spring.
- I am thankful for all the wonderful women in my life.
- I am thankful for a doctors appointment.
- I am thankful for smores. I am not eating them, but I have a plan in the future. Smores are so good. I think I'll make easter smores out of peeps for my nephews.
- I am thankful for talks with my best friend
